Flags: needinfo?(olivier)

You're right, that change unfortunately made it impossible to force the native use of Wayland. I'm looking into a less invasive approach, that would still default to XWayland (until it is deemed ready for native Wayland), but allow forcing native Wayland for testing purposes.

Snap Firefox Nightly and Beta are unaffected.

status-firefox-esr91: unaffected → affected

This commit should do it. If MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND is unset, set it to 0. Otherwise, respect the value being passed.

IIUC, this is fixed now Olivier?

Yes, this is now fixed with version 100.0-2 in the stable channel.
